RE: Connection Problems after joining the server - Project - May 1, 2018

I got the same issue, I join, I time out without getting at the grey screen as usual, after that no matter how much I try I can't seem to join the server.

It loads me in, after like 2 seconds it times me out and I can do nothing but rejoin. I am pretty sure it is not as much my system as much it is the server not liking something about me. I seem to get timed out somewhere in the initialisation period (Sometimes I can see the tab menu with all the info with right clicked being there).

This has been the same case in like 5 instances of Garry's Mod and somewhere around 25 tries to get in.

Networking issue? Are you struggling with speeds, Bandwidth etc ?

Doesn't seem to be the case, I can be the only computer running and still not connect. 10.8 down, 0.8 up has always been enough to join. I don't know if something changed recently.

That is quite low on the up. Have you tried dual-booting onto another OS and connecting ?

That up speed has worked for the last 3 years perfectly fine. No, I don't see how my OS has anything to do with this, note that I can join the build server.

So you spawn into build fine ? Strange. Was suggesting a fresh install of an OS to see if its something software related on the PC.

I will check around to see what I can do, but I believe it might have to do something with the server, I don't see how anything by my side would systematically time me out at the initialisation/spawning process.

sv_timeout 500   Put that in your console before you join

Doesn't that just change the "Connection problems" timer so it won't fix his issue, it'll just mean it'll take 500 seconds for him to be automatically disconnected.

I could be completely wrong


RE: Connection Problems after joining the server - ToiletWater - May 2, 2018

My thought is, he's getting a connection error when his gmod freezes at the start, it's what fixed mine/

@Nebula, are you continuing to have this issue?


RE: Connection Problems after joining the server - Project - May 12, 2018

It seems to be dependent on the player count, but the number used to be 60+ becoming too difficult to come on, recently I can't come on if there is over 20 people on the server which is kinda extreme for what I am used to.

Also here is my console while logging in (my 3rd attempt).
I don't seem to get any warning about timing out or loosing connection.

No, But who knows when it will return, since the same thing happend to me already.


RE: Connection Problems after joining the server - Project - May 17, 2018

@Nebula as you are no longer experiencing this issue, do you mind if we archive this? Unless something new has come up.


RE: Connection Problems after joining the server - Nebula - May 18, 2018

Yep @Project
